Freddie Tukes vs. international Paul Charlie King is the main
event.
Freddie Tukes is having his second fight in Melbourne since beating
Mike Wanprasert March 31 by stoppage in the 4th round.
Freddie is no newcomer to boxing as seen in
http://www.aolnews.com/2009/10/17/sparring-partner-fred-tukes-no-punching-bag-for-champ-miguel-c/
Freddie has only lost one
professional fight in his career and is expected to put up a good
show.
Paul Charlie King has fought for the Lightweight Commonwealth title
so he does not fall short of experience, he has won 18 of his 21
fights and is the younger of the two.

Set up by boxing promoter and TV channel 31 host
Peter Maniatis.
30th Mar 2012
By Young Victor
Knockouts, tko's, knockdowns, roaring and standing ovations were the
highlights of the night.
OPBF Light Heavyweight Title 12 rounds
Manny Vlamis normally a hugely heavy puncher and a very crowd
pleaser came out cautiously but already showing his aggressive style
towards Togasilimai Letoa throughout the first round which ended
evenly.
The second round exposed Letoa to be very well equipped with a good
defense and boxing style.
Letoa got caught with very heavy punching by Vlamis and showed he
was in some trouble but managed to recover very quickly and handed
his own good punches which tolled on Vlamis.
Letoa by this stage got on top of Vlamis and sent him to the canvas
just before the bell ending round two.
Early in the third round Letoa continued serving punishment with
Vlamis fighting back with his huge heart but Letoa by now was well
on top and scored with a huge right.
Vlamis was shaken and in no position to defend well but still
standing, a small cut above his eye was also evident as his trainer
Brian Levier waved a stoppage to the event.
Victorian Light Heavyweight Title 8 rounds
A thrilling fight from round one started with great body punching by Callan Orchard
which won him round
one despite a very good tight defense and good boxing style and
ability by
Lyndon Edney.
In round 2 Callan was as good but was tagged by a beautiful
right hand and looked shakey.
In round 3 Callan landed a flurry of good punches where Lyndon went
down but no count applied by the referee.
Round 4 saw Callan improve and was landing aggressively scoring very
well.
Rounds 5, 6 showed Callan still outpointing Lyndon.
In round 7 Lyndon improved his scoring and the fight looked like it
could have a turn around but Callan gathered himself to hold well.
In the last round Callan held well and kept his effort going despite
his good points lead.
A standing ovation was the way fight fans rewarded these two boxers
which left nothing missing in what was a very good fight. Mr. Mick
Gatto a sponsor of the Peter Maniatis Events generously added on to
the fighters purse $1000 each which they deserved. As heard in the
change rooms, John McCubbin, trainer said Callan Orchard is putting
the extra cash towards the house he is intending to purchase.

Mayweather Jr. uses Twitter to goad Pacquiao:
"Step up Punk"
Floyd Mayweather Jr. has taken his quest for a fight with Manny
Pacquiao to Twitter.
The unbeaten Mayweather publicly challenged and taunted the Filipino
superstar on Tuesday, daring Pacquiao to meet him May 5 in Las
Vegas.
"Manny Pacquiao I'm calling you out let's fight May 5th and give the
world what they want to see," Mayweather tweeted.
Moments later, Mayweather tweeted: "My Jail Sentence
was pushed back because the date was locked in. Step up Punk."
Mayweather is available for a fight in May at the MGM Grand Garden
after Las Vegas Justice of the Peace Melissa Saragosa agreed last
week to postpone his jail sentence in a domestic violence case until
June. Mayweather was sentenced to 87 days in jail, but likely will
serve less time.
Mayweather and Pacquiao are boxing's top two stars, and they have
circled each other warily for more than two years. Both have said
they're eager to fight, yet still haven't reached a deal for what's
likely to be the most lucrative bout in boxing history.
While Pacquiao appeared to be more eager for the fight when the two
first began verbally sparring in 2009, Mayweather has taken the lead
in recent months, stepping up his campaign since Pacquiao's narrow
win over Juan Manuel Marquez in November.

Muhammad Ali is coming home to celebrate another
milestone - his 70th birthday.
The iconic heavyweight boxing champion will bask in
the limelight once again at a private birthday bash Saturday evening
at the Muhammad Ali Center in downtown Louisville. Ali turns 70 on
Jan. 17. The party will double as a fundraiser for the center - a
cultural and education center that also features a museum focusing
on Ali's long career.
Ali Center spokeswoman Jeanie Kahnke said Saturday that Ali will be
surrounded by old friends and people who made a difference in his
life, including his longtime trainer, Angelo Dundee. The party will
feature a dinner, entertainment and speeches.
A few tickets remained available for the $1,000-per-person event,
she said.
